Downtown LA Bargain Shopping

To my fellow Ladies and Fashionistas,
If you haven't yet discovered the bargain shopping in the LA Downtown area, let me just tell you 4 words You-Are-Missing-Out. Every last friday of the month, the showrooms to all the popular brand that we love open up to the public to sell their samples from either the current season or the past season. Even if its the past season who cares? trends come and ago and return very often, that's what fashion is all about. I will share with you some of the items that I have purchased on my last shopping trip. You will find bargains of things marked down from $200 to as low as $20, so on and so forth. If you love Silk there are a lot of designer show rooms thats sell silk items for pennies, literally. I happen to love silk and therefor bought several silk items myself and am in love with them. Each building (Cooper, Cali, New Mart) is about 12 floors and each floor has different showrooms with the sample sales. Eventually after a few trips you will know which one to directly go to when you become familiar with certain show rooms that you like. It's really a great experience and will save you $, considering the fact that most of us barely wear anything twice, especially dresses. Some of you might wonder why am I sharing such a gold mine with you girls but you know what the more the merrier, so long as your purchases make you happy, why not save you some $ :) If you have any questions, feel free to drop me a comment and I will respond.

Hy+Dot Silk Dress- dress it up or down for the summer!

Tuxedo jackets are the new thing for Fall so get one asap for your closet! I love color so I got the beige and orange accented one instead of black with white which is also an option.

This skirt is just phenomenal! I die! in love... look at the detail in the material !!!


Dolce Vita top, made impeccably... you can't see the detail in the picture as much but this was the best I can do. This kind of top would look great with some high wasted black trousers.


I absolutely love this dress. The back is completely open and is just super sexy since the front is closed. Throw on some sandals for a summer look or throw on a leather fitted jacket  and some booties and you're good to go for a nice fall look. I especially love the pattern on this dress!




This was initially my favorite buy! I'm normally not big on wearing shorts but these 100 percent silk shorts with this amazing floral pattern ... I was sold within a second of looking at them! wear them in the summer with a cool white blouse, in the winter with some black tights and a jacket or in the fall. Love, love love....



Sincerely,
Your biggest Fashionista!

Revelations .... written 11/15/11

Isn't it funny how most people prefer to read personal blogs and are more interested in the drama and the gossip than anything else? I was debating all day today whether I should write a personal blog about my feelings and or what I'm thinking as of today and decided to go for it. As in the past it might have hurt some people and or got me in some trouble. But this is purely about my thoughts. Recently I have experienced some lows in my life and I noticed that it happens through out life and you begin to grow and discover more about yourself every day of your life. Some people enter your life while others exit, some interests replace old ones, some feelings develop as others disappear, so on and so forth. At this point in my life I feel disconnected from a several people in my life. It can go both ways, It may be me and how I feel or it may be the other person depending on what your preferences are in different situations. One thing is for sure, you cant expect people to have t...

Spread LOVE

Romance is a big part of love, so is connection, chemistry and that spark you feel between yourself and your mate or even someone from your past or your future. Love is a feeling that each person can characterize as their own, but when you feel it together w another person is unexplainable. Why does love hurt yet feel so good at the same time? Its the big question we all ask ourselves its like having a thin line between love and hate and pain and healing. It can change in a second, a minute, an hour, a week or even last a lifetime. I feel like these days love is very political and it kills the romance and that spark that you may have w person. Money, values, who supports who female vs. Male, who has more money, what house does one live in. If we throw all those things out the window can you imagine how amazing love would be if it was just PURE and the feeling only came from the ♡. Are we just afraid of honesty? Are we afraid to let our feelings flow? Or are we afraid of getting hur...

NYC Fashion > LA Fashion

As I recently took a short trip to NYC I of course observed all the fashion and the visual displays on Madison Ave, 5th Ave and more. NY is such a beautiful place to be and there is so much to see. I would walk at times on my own and just observe and take it all in, it was an amazing experience. NY remains to be my #1 place to live and be a part of . Its really the center of the universe with its diversity. Now onto the Fashion. As always I love designer resale stores. NYC happens to have some of the best ones. I went to my favorite again which is simply called "Designer Resale" also known as "The miracle on 81st  Street". Not only are things priced fairly but they have the best selection on the Upper East Side and in NY period. As I walked in I fell in love with a Chanel bag. Imagine, small elegant on a long chain and python. I asked the sales girl to let me see it. I thought to myself its probably over 2k but let me just see it ! To my surprise it was a fraction...
